Description

This photo shows three men kneeling on the ground, (and a dog, possibly not kneeling) in near foreground studying a row of freshly dug potatoes. The men are identified as Ed Baldwin at left, owner of Baldwin Seed Company; Glen Woods, local Palmer potato farmer in center (whose potato crop is presumably under inspection); and Ed's son Dick Baldwin at right. (Dog's name unknown). Between Ed and Glen the row of dug potatoes can be seen receding to a row of trees at the far end of the field in the background. All three men appear to be smiling as they inspect the heavy crop of large tubers. (The dog appears to be bored with it all.)
